"Although we human adults are really good at understanding other minds, we weren't always that way. It takes children a long time to break into the system."

Previous Quote

You have to be always drunk. That's all there is to it-it's the only way. So as not to feel the horrible burden of time that breaks your back and bends you to the earth, you have to be continually drunk. But on what? Wine, poetry or virtue, as you wish. But be drunk.

— Charles Baudelaire
